Before making lockdown decision, they could have discussed with various stack holders. for example Transport, Labour union etc. Politicians make decisions without discussing them with experts in all fields affected. Govt made right decision to lockdown based on scientific data. However they forgot to thing about other factors with Indian side.
Whatever happened is now in past. Whats needed is rapid response force to tackle this mess. Its simple to order every DM and Village panchayat to ask help migrants who are walking to be at single point where they could catch bus to train station and commence further journey.
There are several people who are commenting and suggesting same to govt twitter handle, if only they listen logically. Just saying that Centre has released 11,000 Cr rs to states to help migrants shelter and 3 meal a day will not work. How many of use believe state govt will be using this money with immediate effect?
Many NGO's, Hotel owners, Wedding Hall owners are coming forward to give their premise free of cost to migrant workers as well as for people who are in quarantine (based on my home town example) . We all know what will happen to money released, it will vanish into think air without any single rs spent on welfare of migrants.
Coming to point again, instead of passing money to states, faring migrants to nearest town, from there by bus/train to their home town should be the focus.
